天舒私历史:当沙沙声响起的时候
现在,听广播基本只是在开车的时候了,曾几何时,广播在生活里是那么重要。
大约六岁左右吧,我爸妈斥巨资购进了一个匣子,记得很清楚,是“春雷”牌的收音机,小巧,黑色的,装两节二号的电池,在此之前,我听广播要坐在马路边上,那时候的马路虽然车不多,可是很有趣,有挑着天线的绿色野战车呼啸而过,听说去“支边”。每到这个时候街头电线杆子上的大喇叭就会配合默契地广播着,女声高亢,男音凄厉,把单调的生活搞得有声有色。
当然,大部分时间街头都是很安静的,定时会播送《记录新闻》,这些新闻说得非常慢,而且是要重复两遍的,应该是让人拿笔记下来,不知道这种记录有没有人会去做,可是它就一直这么播。当然也有马季的相声,还有几首民歌,不过那都是很靠后的事情了。
所以有了匣子,我如获至宝。没过多久我就发现自己有了人生第一个特异功能。收音机大概有五六个频道,而且每到周二的下午,所有的台基本上都检修停播,可是我能够完全从频道的沙沙声中辨别出目前是什么台的位置。那时候对收音机的热爱,绝对不亚于我儿子对IPad的痴迷,每天的节目安排也是倒背如流,臻于化境,那时候的文化生活得是多么贫乏呀!
当然后来逐渐内容丰富了起来,有了音乐,有了各种文艺节目,我最最喜爱的是快板书“大闹天宫”,记得去我表姨家,花架子下坐着专心听快板,如醉如痴,还跟前几天做的梦一样清晰,事实上那都是四十年前的事情了,表姨都仙逝十几年了。
当然,还有评书,最开始是刘兰芳的“岳飞传”,然后是袁阔成单田芳,每天到点必须要端坐在收音机前,雷打不动,还有每天的小说连播节目,那时候李自成还是农民起义的英雄呢,李岩牛金星,后来还有“红日”,可惜忽然有一天,广播中断了,传出了中美建交的消息,从此用步枪打飞机的段子就再没播过,或许是被邻居朝鲜把段子抄了去,变成了金日成抄起步枪打落飞机的传奇,真不尊重版权。
就这么听,慢慢地长大,有了电视,有了各种出版物,有了互联网,一切就快了起来,开始眼花缭乱,我的特异功能就这么消失了,也许是从追着看“射雕英雄上海滩”的时候消失的?不记得了,一切都变了。一切都尘封了起来,直到某一天,我听到了:
刹那间心中似乎落雪纷纷,时间倒流,在略带沙哑的歌声中,彷佛看到了孤独坐在山荆子树下数吊死鬼的自己专注地在听,如同恒久,如一世那么长。
when i was young i'd listen to the radio
waiting for my favorite songs
when they played i'd sing along,
it make me smile.
those were such happy times and not so long ago
how i wondered where they'd gone.
but they're back again just like a long lost friend
all the songs i love so well.
every shalala every wo'wo
still shines.
every shing-a-ling-a-ling
that they're starting
to sing so fine
when they get to the part
where he's breaking her heart
it can really make me cry
just like before.
it's yesterday once more.
(shoobie do lang lang)
looking bak on how it was in years gone by
and the good times that had
makes today seem rather sad,
so much has changed.
it was songs of love that i would sing to them
and i'd memorise each word.
those old melodies still sound so good to me
as they melt the years away
every shalala every wo'wo still shines
every shing-a-ling-a-ling
that they're startingto sing
so fine
all my best memorise come back clearly to me
some can even make me cry
just like before.
it's yesterday once more.
(shoobie do lang lang)
every shalala every wo'wo still shines.
every shing-a-ling-a-ling
that they're starting to sing
so fine
every shalala every wo'wo still shines.
